ThousandEyes Initial Setup

NM
Senior Service Engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Although I wasn't a part of the initial process, the initial setup was straightforward. Once we knew all the things that needed to happen, the solution was deployed without much of an issue.

The solution being in a cloud helped with that. We have a hybrid environment, so we have a presence there and on-premise as well. With regards to the cloud, it was easy. Anything that's going cloud, as long as you know what you're doing, is easy.

I'm not sure how long the deployment itself took.

I've conducted a straightforward proof of concept, and based on that, I believe that it's relatively easy to implement. I would rate it at an eight in terms of ease of setup.

The product is easy to deploy. The complete installation takes one week. We need three to four engineers for the deployment. It is easy to maintain the solution. We need only one person for the maintenance.

The solution's initial setup process was straightforward. It took us only a week to deploy the solution in our company. The deployment and maintenance are done probably once a month. I don't get involved in the product deployment since primary engineers are responsible for the deployment part.

We found the installation process to be very simple and straightforward. It's not complex. It's not difficult. A company shouldn't have any issues deploying the product.

CEO at a financial services firm with 11-50 employees

I don't handle the implementation or deployment. I only project and provide a logical projection for the client's needs, including how many servers, how many licenses, how many features, etc. will be needed. However, I don't deliver the projects.

That said, the installation as far as I understand it, is complex. 

It's complex in the sense of personalizing it. The implementation itself doesn't need to be complex, however, it takes a few hours of work. The actualizing of the VMware and hardware servers can be pretty expensive.

Usually, deployment requires 18 hours per server to install and actualize. However, if you need to personalize it, the rule is to authenticate and to provide tags, too. Due to the segmentation, you need to plan for a six to 13-day deployment period.

The initial setup is quite simple. It has a good interface which makes everything easy to grasp. It only took two people to deploy the solution.
